Abstract:
The present invention provides an airframe structure of an aircraft or spacecraft, with: a hollow body section which can be subjected to an internal pressure; a membrane arrangement which has at least one single-part, multi-curved membrane component for sealing off the internal pressure from an external pressure which acts on the hollow body section and differs from the internal pressure; and a joining structure for a pressure tight joining of the membrane arrangement to a region of the hollow body section; wherein the membrane arrangement forms a receiving well which is accessible from outside the hollow body section, extends at least partially into the hollow body section and is for receiving a component of the aircraft or spacecraft.
Abstract:
A method of forming a field effect transistor comprising a gate formed on an insulating layer, the gate having, in a zone in contact with the insulating layer, a semiconducting central zone and lateral zones in the length of the gate, the method comprising forming a gate comprising a portion of insulating layer, a portion of semiconducting layer formed over the insulating layer, and a portion of mask layer formed over the semiconducting layer; performing an etching of the portion of the mask layer such that only a portion in the centre of the gate remains; and reacting the semiconducting gate with a metal deposited over the gate.
Abstract:
A method for the manufacture of a cylinder liner for combustion engines and a cylinder liner which can be manufactured by the method according to the invention are disclosed. The method comprises a thermal spray-deposition, such as by an arc spray-deposition process, of a wearing layer on a supporting body and a spray-deposition of a protective or connecting layer on the wearing layer. The wearing layer comprises a hypereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy and the protective or connecting layer comprises a hypoeutectic aluminum-silicon alloy. A melt retarder of iron, for example, may be interposed between these two layers. The melt retarder comprises a higher melting temperature than the two aluminum-silicon alloys, thereby preventing the wearing layer from partially melting when the cylinder liner is cast into a cylinder bore.
Abstract:
In a turbine housing for an exhaust gas turbocharger of an internal combustion engine with at least one spiral channel, which can be coupled into an exhaust gas flow of an exhaust tract of the internal combustion engine, and a receiving space for a turbine wheel which is disposed downstream of the at least one spiral channel and can be acted upon by the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine passing through the at least one spiral channel of the turbine housing, there is at least one partial housing including the at least one spiral channel, and a housing module which is fastened to the partial housing and has a vane structure disposed upstream of the receiving space which also includes an attachment surface for a bearing section of the exhaust gas turbocharger. The invention also resides in an exhaust gas turbocharger with such a turbine housing as well as to a method for producing such a turbine housing.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to a device, comprising a hollow body having at least one open end and at least one barrier inside of the hollow body, which is non-permeable for liquids and solids under ambience conditions, however, becomes liquid-permeable by applying an external force like pressure, drag force or driving power to said barrier, wherein said barrier is spaced from at least one open end of the hollow body, the use of such a device for processing of a liquid sample, a method for preparation of said device and a method for isolation or purification of any biomolecules using said device.
Abstract:
A device for fastening an electronic module on a mounting rail and an electronic module fastened with the device on a mounting rail are provided. The device has a displaceable nose, encompassing a profile of the mounting rail together with a stationary nose provided on the back of a housing of the electronic module. The displaceable nose is configured as a clamping profile of a slide. By plugging in mechanical anchorings, the device is mounted in recesses of the housing on the back of the electronic module. The device has a spring mechanism provided to support the electronic module on the housing. A clamping force of the device on the mounting rail results from a force to the slide applied by the spring mechanism. An end of the slide opposite of the displaceable nose protrudes beyond the housing of the electronic module for the manual displacement of the displaceable nose.
Abstract:
A MOS transistor having its gate successively comprising an insulating layer, a metal silicide layer, a layer of a conductive encapsulation material, and a polysilicon layer.
Abstract:
A device serves the purpose of sealing a rotating shaft for use under water. It exhibits face seals which seal a work area against the water. In accordance with the invention the face seals are constructed in the form of three slide ring pairs, wherein between the three slide ring pairs two areas (18, 21) are arranged. One of the areas is a sealing area adjacent to the water filled with a first medium and the other area is a leaking area adjacent to the work area. In the sealing area the first medium is held at a pressure level which is higher than the pressure of the adjacent water.
Abstract:
An embroidery hoop (1) for a sewing machine or embroidery machine having two hoop parts, namely the lower hoop part (3) and the upper hoop part (5). The two hoop parts (3, 5) are connected to each other by a hinge that can be released without the use of tools. The embroidery material is clamped between the inner hinge element (9) on the lower hoop part (3) and the outer hinge element (15) on the upper hoop part (5). Through this measure, an embroidery material can be embroidered at any position.
